Been looking for a B-side called "Have A Heart" by BJ Thomas from 1971. The only place I see where it's available is the CD The Complete Scepter Singles but I have all the other hits. Will trade anything I may have.

Can contact:
nathanj06@yahoo.com

Thanks for any help.

I bought this cd last year for the very same reason! It was fairly inexpensive and the mastering is top notch as you would expect. Is this cd no longer available? If it is it is a no brainer to purchase .

I was circling the Real Gone set but held off purchasing when I read the following thread.

Even if some reviews tell this is the 45 versions, it is NOT!!. Many of this are actually stereo LP versions just fold down from stereo to mono!! One of this are 'Raindrops Keep Fallin..' I'm sorry to say, but I'm just feel completly foolished .


NOT FROM MASTER TAPES [[https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R2RF8HKFG0DNDL/ref=cm_cr_dp_d_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B0073GQWYM)BySteve Goddard [[https://www.amazon.com/gp/pdp/profile/amzn1.account.AEG7IXPZTW6L3OCZI6K5ZKE7IHJA/ref=cm_cr_dp_d_pdp?ie=UTF8)on June 11, 2014

If you're looking for crisp clear mono sound from master tapes, pass on this one. Many of the tracks are dubbed from vinyl, and not mint copies at that. Still waiting for a compilation to recommend that contains the sound of the hit versions. This one isn't it.

I don't understand the response, "a no brainer to purchase", when I stated it's available. I have all the other BJ hits so why buy them all again. I am simply looking for a minimal favor. Plus...the reviews on that CD on amazon strongly disagree with you, so if you like it, great. Otherwise if someone would like a trade THEN respond. One song, it's not that difficult. Thank you.

I'm sorry you took it that way. There are a select few on here who feel the need to respond with the same attitude that serves no purpose to the original question or request so that can work both ways. If I offended you, my apology.

Aw thank you. But it's only available on the Scepter Singles Collection and not available to download. It's ok, I'll find it eventually. :)

It is a great song. This guy really could sing. It is only over the past few years that i have truly appreciated how talented he was. Handsome guy too. He could have easily been as big as Neil Diamond, but i guess he didn't too badly for himself.

I'd love to hear this set. A very talented guy, indeed, and a perfect setting with Scepter. Thomas had attitude and addiction issues even early on, though, and I think that probable hindered his level of success - though he sure had lots of hits and a long recording career.

I had heard he had personal issues to overcome. He perhaps had more success as a songwriter than a performer as a result of his inability to be in the studio on time. However what is undeniable is his outstanding talent.

He surely does have an impressive string of hits even though top 20 or whatever, they were very well done productions. It's always amazed me how they combine the right material to the right voice and BJ's was perfect for those Scepter songs. :)
